Description

La coccinelle de Coralie... Psyllobora vigintiduopunctata (often abbreviated to Psyllobora 22-punctata), the 22-spot ladybird, is a 3–5 mm long ladybird commonly found in Europe. Unlike most other ladybirds which feed on aphids, P. 22-punctata eats mildew — especially from umbellifers and low-growing shrubs. Thank you very much for your comments on my previous upload:

Ca fait un bail que je ne suis plus venu sur Rosity! En regardant la série des photos sur les insectes, je suis tombé sur la plus belle (à mes yeux, c'est subjectif). Et là, surprise! C'est toi l'auteur! Chapeau bas. L'idée du jaune sur jaune, mais avec un contraste dans la forme (dessin géométrique et courbes naturelles) donne une image qui sort du lot. Superbe!
